RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the expression of zinc finger protein 580 (ZNF580) in oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) model of SH-SY5Y cell line and its overexpression on the apoptosis of hypoxic-ischemic neurons and the possible mechanism.Methods:The study was divided into two parts: (1) Human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cell line was cultured and divided into the model group and control group. The model group was incubated at 37 ℃ for 6 h in a three-gas incubator of 95% N 2, 5% CO 2, and 0.1% O 2 to establish OGD model, and proteins were extracted at 6, 12, and 24 h after OGD. The expression of ZNF580 was quantified by Western blot. (2) Effects of ZNF580 overexpressed with lentivirus transfection on the apoptosis and cleaved caspase-3 expression: Cells were collected from the control group and model group 24 h after OGD. Overexpressed ZNF580 cells were constructed by lentivirus transfection as the overexpression group and then treated with OGD. Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis rate in the three groups and Western blot was used to detect the expression of cleaved caspase-3. Two independent sample t-test, one-way variance analysis, and LSD- t for pairwise comparison were used for statistical analysis. Results:(1) ZNF580 expression was significantly increased at 6, 12, and 24 h after OGD compared with the control group (1.36±0.05, 2.12±0.07, 1.69±0.05 vs 1.00, LSD- t=9.20, 28.26, and 19.21, all P<0.001). (2) Apoptosis rates of the control, model, and overexpression groups were (1.07±0.56)%, (21.51±1.65)%, and (3.42±0.93)%, respectively, and relative expression levels of cleaved caspase-3 were 1.00, 2.47±0.59, and 1.70±0.25, respectively. Compared with the control group, apoptosis rate and cleaved caspase-3 relative expression level were significantly increased in the model group (LSD- t=21.98 and 8.17, both P=0.001), while the two figures were significantly decreased in the overexpression group when compared with the model group (LSD- t=19.45, P=0.001; LSD- t=4.28, P=0.005). Conclusion:Hypoxia and ischemia could lead to the overexpression of ZNF580, which may reduce the apoptosis of hypoxic-ischemic neurons by inhibiting the expression of cleaved caspase-3 and affecting its enzymatic activation.
